History

DNSdoctor is a fork of ZoneCheck occuring at the version 2.0.4. ZoneCheck was initiated and developed by engineers working at NIC France (INRIA's service) to check the correct configuration of a zone before delegating a domain name under .fr. Its development continued at AFNIC, which took over the activities of NIC France on January 1. 1998.

DNSdoctor 

In August 2004 a fork of ZoneCheck at the version 2.0.4 has been created, it is currently developped and maintained by Stephane D'Alu.

ZoneCheck 2.x.y 

It is a rewrite from scratch done in ruby at the end of 2002 by Stephane D'Alu, so as to create a modular and extensible version.

ZoneCheck 1.x.y 

It was created in 1995 by Benoit Grange and has been maintained by him until 1997. The prototype was a script using the dig command, which evolved into a perl program based on the DNS resolver Resolv5. Vincent Gillet maintained the programme in 1998. This task has been taken over by Erwan Mas and Philippe Lubrano from 1998.
